It's always good to end a good round on a winner. Still, maybe next time.

A quick totting up of the points makes for interesting reading but has little difference on the overall standings, except for Proudhuff who's showing stiff resolve at the rear and JWare who's taking the penultimate position with a hungry expression.

It's interesting how words change over time, evolving in meaning as the decades pass, so that modern words are often a country mile away from their original definition. For example, most people don't know that the word truss derives from the Old French word trousse, the original definition of which is, "a structure consisting of one or more triangular units made from straight beams of wood or metal, which is used to support a structure such as a roof or bridge," but today simply means "whoosh."

Can the contestants think of any contemporary words that might have different meanings in any of the 2000AD futures (or pasts, or parallels)?

***

Example: (The Cursed Earth); "plenty of testicles."
Savagery: (Volgan occupied Britain); "cage for rebels."
Bulletin: (Downlode); "engaged in a gunfight."
Abundant: (Volgan occupied Britain); "Volgan Army Catering Division Chief Baker."

There are clearly funnier ones out there...
